The Platform Category's have Disappeared suddenly, how do i get them back ?

[drenco]

So after installing the latest version of Launchbox the first thing i done was import Mame 02.51, it started to scrap the metadata etc after it had finished i closed it down and upon reopening Launchbox i noticed that under the Platform Category tab its now blank and missing all of the category's whereas before it was populated by all of the various category's etc, whys it done this and how do i get this back in my setup ?

If you are referring to the auto generated arcade playlists, you should be able to right click your Arcade platform while in the Platform Categories section and choose "Create Missing Arcade/MAME Playlists..."

Yes i selected the Checkbox for it create the various different Category's upon importing Mame into Launchbox and it was there and then it disappeared the next time i started up Launchbox etc & here this is what im talking about when seeing all of the category's gone under Platform Category's etc and i dont see the option you are talking about where '"Create Missing Arcade/MAME Playlists..."  is.

Expand the category and then right click on this Arcade to get the option.
